In postwar Vienna Austria Holly Martins a writer of pulp Westerns arrives penniless as a guest of his childhood chum Harry Lime only to learn he has died. Martins develops a conspiracy theory after learning of a "third man" present at the time of Harry's death running into interference from British officer Major Calloway and falling head-over-heels for Harry's grief-stricken lover Anna.
